What role does repentance play in God's gathering of His people?

Answered in 1 source

Repentance is essential as it reflects the inner transformation God works in the hearts of His people.

Repentance plays a crucial role in God’s gathering of His people, as it signifies a change of heart brought about by God's grace. In the parable of the Prodigal Son, the son realizes his need and returns to his father with a contrite heart, demonstrating true repentance. According to Luke 15:10, there is joy in the presence of the angels over one sinner who repents, highlighting the importance of repentance as a pivotal event in the life of a sinner. This process is initiated by God's sovereign grace, leading individuals to recognize their need for a Savior and prompting them to turn back to Him, where they find forgiveness and acceptance.
